Tongs, Centipedes and Free Will

I have had many experiences with centipedes since moving to Kaua’i. Once I was bitten because the centipede was hidden in my outdoor washing machine and I was not expecting that. I hadn’t learn the ways of jungle living. Now, I’ve come to learn more about the ways of living in a jungle, and for […]

Greater Things Shall You Do!

Are you living in the magic of infinite possibility? Do you realize that life is good and there is a Power that is always conspiring in your favor? Do you realize that you are capable of everything in every moment, that you do not have to live by what’s happened in the past? This is […]

Give Me Your Tired and Your Poor

Ernest Holmes wrote, “In the midst of plenty, humanity lives in want, because of fear. To over come fear is the greatest adventure of the mind.” As I watched the “Repairers of the Breach” an organization of clergy and lay people who work for the oppressed, speak out and march out for our immigrants at […]

Beliefs, Rules, Laws

While I was out exercising today on the coastal path, I was suddenly bombarded by all the beliefs we have on this earth plane. These beliefs become our rules for living, which then become the Law of our life. When I say beliefs, I mean what we have accepted as a race consciousness to be […]

Drop It

I had the opportunity to watch an interview with Mark Nepo, author, poet, mystic, for the second time. I am also reading his beautiful book “More Together than Alone.” Something that struck me last night was the idea of “Drop it.” Mr. Nepo was talking about the many times when our monkey mind spins and […]

What Are You Feeling?

I had the great opportunity yesterday to be part of the live-stream from Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Advanced Retreat in Portland. The only word I can use for it is “generous.” I spent three and a half hours beginning at 7am learning more about the quantum field and then had the opportunity to be part of […]

It Will Rise

When I lived in Los Angeles, I was an active member of a Center there. One night, the Spiritual Director was giving a class and he casually mentioned that he imagined having a labyrinth lit with candles in the room we were sitting in. I was immediately called to create that labyrinth. When I say […]

Sitting on the Fence?

Last night, we finished our Power of Decision Class with our final projects. There is nothing more inspiring for me than to experience the transformations people experience when they truly study and put the Principles of the Science of Mind and Spirit to practice. If anyone reading this blog has not read the Power of […]

Carving My Own Divinity

At times like these or any time for that matter, the importance of our individual soul’s development is of outmost importance. From Dr. Jim Lockard: The importance of continued study and practice on the spiritual developmental pathway cannot be overemphasized. When we stop studying and our practices become repetitive and stagnant, our growth does not […]

What Are You Going to Do?

We had an intense discussion in our women’s group last Sunday about the situation at our borders and families and children and what we could do to help. The discussion went to many places from holding the light and wholeness of solutions in our minds and hearts to moving into action in the world of […]
